About Wear METAR APK
Table Of Contents
Description
The first aviation weather app for Android Wear (for U.S. airports only for now)!Use your voice to request METAR and TAF for a particular airport, city or nearest airport (U.S. only currently).
Usage instructions:
On an active watchface, say "ok Google, start Airport Weather". Alternatively you can use one of the available launchers to launch Airport Weather application on your Wear device (not the handheld!) or choose Airport Weather from the start or recents menu.
It will launch the app and display the main menu.
You can choose between Search, Nearest, manually input ICAO or domestic code or 5 most recent successful searches.
If you choose "Search", you can then say the airport name (e.g. "Palomar Airport") or city name (e.g. "San Diego").
"Nearest" option will display weather for the closest airport within 25 miles.
The result will come back as an actionable notification with current color-coded flight rules (VFR, IFR, etc) if a single airport was found or the worst flight rules if multiple airports were found.
You can then click on the notification to see the full decoded weather card. If several airports are found, you can scroll the cards vertically.
If you swipe left (scroll to the right) on a METAR card, it will show you decoded TAF for that airport if available, or nearest TAF within 25nm from that airport. All standard US TAF features are supported, excluding parameters specific to military airports. However, it does handle military TAFs properly (converts kilometers to statute miles, etc).
Please be prepared to wait up to a minute if your search was too broad.
Tested on LG G Watch, moto360 and LG G Watch R.

If you know the ICAO (e.g. KCRQ) or domestic non-ICAO (3-letter/digit - e.g. F70) identifier of your airport, you can punch it in situations where you don't want to talk to your watch in public or when the search doesn't properly recognize your voice.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
